Mistakes in the sender field
« on: June 23, 2006, 08:37:07 PM »
One of my e-mail accounts is apparently missing a period, and because of that, people send me e-mails that are not destined for me really. This doesn't happen too often, but it occurs. This obviously could have some implications, as the twit who has this other e-mail address has registered accounts under my address. Needless to say, I have ruined his reputation on a message board before or something.

Here's the initial e-mail:

Hey, you like? These are the two hottest girls on the trip with the sac youth symphony, and I got to hang out with them. I am a lucky man.

Here's the attached image:


And it goes on...

and who the hell are you?

Then I got some sort of e-mail soon following his confusion. I assume it is either a virus or this guy is a 'tard.

Please Read this message:

Hi, my name is Bryan Warner. I am 21 years old, and I have a large tumor on my brain and severe lung cancer. The doctors say I will die soon if this isn't fixed, and my family can't pay the bills. "The Make A Wish Foundation" has agreed to donate 7 cents for every time this message is reposted. For those of you who repost, I thank you so much. But for those who don't repost it, I will still pray for you. Please, if you are a kind person, have a heart. Please, please, PLEASE REPOST THIS MESSAGE!

Please feel free to call me for anything.

*hey it wont cost you but 10 seconds of your time but it could cost me my life.

It's not a chain letter everyone and we wouldn't even consider postingsomething like this if it wasn't serious, so please if you have the heart repost this to all of your friends

For obvious reasons, I removed the phone number. Maybe I should call this guy?

I replied back to the other e-mail.

Because people think periods do magical things.

Yeah, in reality, they just put your girlfriend in a crappy mood.
May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house.
